Friday

This is the edited version of my post earlier today. I was too sleepy just now after coming back from Changi Airport.

Today, school ended at 10.30am. It was a day I looked forward to. We played soccer for PE and it was fun. My team won 4-0. Atiqa is good. She scored half the goals. Evangeline, Audrey, Jie Ying and I left school at about 11am. We took 186 to Queenstown mrt station and got off at Changi Airpot. It took about an hour. After walking around aimlessly for a while, we finally found the display shelf full of prohibited items for checking in. We are planning to use that. After that, we ate lunch and went home. When we were on the MRT, I was trying to practice making the sound. Evangeline was teaching me. Something like, put air under your lips, the blow it out and it'll produce a "pukk" sound. Jie Ying kept glancing up from her ds to take a look at me and laugh (that is a constant) so I didn't practice much of it. I don't know what makes it so funny.

When I reached home, I got out of the lift and walked towards my door but I realised something wasn't right. There was a pair of school shoes outside the house that didn't belong to Jean or me. I nearly wanted to go back into the lift because I thought I got off at the wrong floor. But when I looked at the door and area around it, I was quite certain ths was the one I looked at everyday. I pressed the doorbell and had to wait around half a minute before someone opened the door. When the door opened, it was actually Jean's friend. But it gave me a shock. She looked a lot like Jean but just that she was taller. I thought Jean had suddenly shot up in height in just one morning. I entered the house and went into Jean's room to ask for an explanation. Thankfully, she had already told my parents or I knew she would definitely have been killed if it was my mom and not me who rang that doorbell. It turned out that her friend ate lunch with her and came back with jean as she had french at moelc at 4.30pm. Jean had to go back to school at 4 for her band practice (they're in the finals of their intra-school band competition so they're working hard). They left together at 4.

I did violin practice from 4.45-6.15. I was 25% asleep while doing scales. But I woke up while practicing the pieces. Right now, I'm just concentrating on string concert pieces for the rest of the week. After that, I'll continue with violin lessons and the normal workload comes back. There's something unusual - Jean went to sleep at 8.30pm just now and she's still sleeping. I don't think she'll be awake till late tomorrow morning. She usually sleeps later than me (>11but I suspect it's 12) and she seems to have more homework than me.

Section for Jie Ying: I realised I haven't been putting this section recently. It's a sign of ageing. For now, I hope your ankle gets well soon.
